Is that a silencer on a fucking Anti-Tank rifle?
Yeah that’s why i clicked into this. 20mm i think. Wow
Though it was a small mine sweeper roller with the angle next to the truck. But then none of that looked right
Maybe the title or attached article can clarify the size of the round.
I just saw Lahti then went right to memory where i saw one on Sons of Guns episode and was trying to recall.
But thanks for trying to make me look like a jack ass.
I was curious, so looked this up:
20mm projectile is approximately .787 caliber. Also, 20mm is apparently the entry-level where a weapon in this size moves up from being called a gun to being referred to as a cannon. So there’s that.
20mm categorization is more of a convenient shorthand than a universal rule. 20mm anti-tank rifles were during their heyday known as rifles. A modern example like the Anzio is also known as a rifle.
